This summer, AARP Pennsylvania is hitting the road in a decked-out van to celebrate the 90th anniversary of Social Security. Our Social Security Road Trip is all about meeting Pennsylvanians where they are. At each stop, we’re attending local events, collecting stories, and hearing directly from people about what Social Security means to them.

Winter is upon us and with temperatures plummeting in many areas, keeping the heat on is critical — a fact that criminals try to take advantage of. They impersonate utility companies, threatening to cut off service if an immediate payment isn’t made. The goal of these crooks is to create a sense of urgency so the target acts quickly to pay the alleged past-due balance.
We all want to be helpful, especially when the request comes from our boss, a friend or a community leader. This instinct is something criminals take advantage of. That’s why you should be suspicious of any urgent message that asks you to “do me a favor.”
